Dinah of Seneca: A glimpse at the opening

“Kill Them All!”: The Spartacus Finale
I started watching this show because I pay attention to all things Romans these days. That's because my book coming out next month, Dinah of Seneca, deals with alternate history Romans and I'm working on its sequel. My world is not that close to the world of...

Last week, I was asked a question about the one book that influenced my life. I had trouble narrowing it to just one. So I started thinking about all the books I'll hold close to my heart and will have in my collection until I die. And I made a list. 🙂 1. The Black...
